The following factors are among the most important to consider:

• High image resolutions and/or lower compression levels result in larger images.

Bandwidth affected.

• Access by large numbers of Motion JPEG and/or unicast MPEG-4 clients. Band-

width affected.

• Simultaneous viewing of different streams (resolution, compression, etc.) by dif-

ferent clients. Frame rate and bandwidth affected.

• Accessing both Motion JPEG and MPEG-4 video streams simultaneously. Frame

rate and bandwidth affected.

• Heavy usage of event settings affects the camera’s CPU load. Frame rate affected.
• Enabled motion detection. Frame rate and bandwidth affected.
• Heavy network utilization due to poor infrastructure. Bandwidth affected
• Viewing on poorly performing client PC’s lowers perceived performance. Frame

rate affected.
